How Neglected. Husbands May Succeed In
Winning Their First Wives q Second

How Neglected. Husbands May Succeed In
Winning Their First Wives Second
Time.
If ever your wife's honeymoon de-
votion to you turns cherries, like the
old of the moon, don't return to your
honeymoon treatment of her; don't
rush home from business at the first
possible moment with basket of choice
fruit, and meet her with kiss and a
caress; don't compliment her taste in
dress, the neatness of the sitting-room,
nor the appetizing airvshe has breathed
in the dining-room.
Put away these boyish habits and
command her devotion by bringing
home on your face the cloud of days
business; be late about it. too. Then
try to find some new fault in her, and
don't let her forget one of the old set.
Taboo her virtues. and praise other
women's. Call her "you," and if she's
hard at work from six a. m. to ten p.
m, growl because she hires the wash
ing done; and, if she dare ask for
money, insist on knowing what she did
with the twenty-five cents you "gave"
her last week. And then if she doesn't
prove familiar with the points and pedi-
gree of your party's candidate for Con-
gress, laugh at her and tell her how
stupid it would be to let such disinter-
ested creatures vote!
Don't count sixteen hours a day for
you and the children any thing, but
wonder why she doesn't read the daily
papers and the reviews, and take an in
terest in politics, art, music, science,
history, and the "labor" question. Let
her split the kindlings, build the fire,
tend the teething baby, and broil the
steak; then, when she can get you up to
breakfast, you sit down sour and grum-
BILE till she cries, finding the steak
either over-done or under-done, if you
have to kill truth for it.
If all this devotion" on your part
fails to Irvine her arms about your neck,
find lot of fault with her to the chill
dren; and, turning your back to her in
the evening. perorate your efforts for
that day with glowing eulogy on the
beauty, taste, culture, and housekeep-
ing of Smiths wife.
Now, husband, what further excuse
can you have for chilling time at your
own fireside.-James Clement ambrose,
in Gno1 H0,spL.epn;,a0

EXHAUSTIVE FARMING.
An Important Question Which Must r
Settled by Many Western Farmers.

An Important Question Which Must BE
Settled by Many Western Farmers.
Farming that cNhausts the soil is the
kind quite generally carried on by those
who buy and settle upon rich loamy
land and raise wheat. A Western man,
in talking upon this subject, gave ex-
preston to about the following views:
He was in the habit of putting coarse
manure on corn ground, blowing it I'M
der following with wheat or other small
grain. He stated that he believed that
no land responded to liberal manuring
better than prairie lands. The same
ready response follows good tillage
of these lands. 1t was his opinion that
one OF the greatest mistakes made by
Western farmers who had settled upon
rich loamy lands was in taking it for
granted that these lands would turn off
good crops, year after year, although
there was returned to the soil nothing
Of the elements taken from it. He had
found judicious rotation making the
grasses, clover especially, leading
means through which he could keep
the land in good plight. Livestock
had been a main dependence with
him, he having kept enough to con-
sumo all the hay and feeding grain he
could raise. In unfavOrable times,
namely, when prices were low, or the
seasons unfavorable, he believed that
he had always been able to count lit
tie gain, although sometimes only that
secured from the manure made upon
the premises, getting the support of
his family and live stock at the same
time. Another source of disappoint-
ment comes from putting too much
stock upon the meadows in the late
summer and fall. The stock will do
well enough, but the hay crop of the
following season will invariably show
that this eXhausts the soil. The ques-
ton To be settled is, shall the meadows
be pastured in the fall and hay be
bought the following season to make
up for the drain?- National LiUe-Stocl

The Court Room Crowded by People List
ening to the Closing Arguments.
KANSAS CITY. Jan. S.-1he trial of George
Hamilton, the Knight of Labor leader, for
trainwrecking, in the Wyandotte district
court, will probably reach the jury this
afternoon. Arguments were made ycster-
day by Colonel b. S. Mcdonald, Major
Warner and Mr. c. f. Hutchings, and were
listened to by a greater number Of specta-
tors than has been present on any preced-
ing day, and at the session last
night the crowd was the largest during
the trial There are yet three speeches to
be made. Hon. i. p. Wagner, of Atchi-
son, will speak for the State "a the opening
of court this morning, and will be followed
by Ex-Governor Charles p. Johnson, of st.
Louis, for the defense. Judge Laughlin of
st. Louis, one of the attorneys for the pros
ecution, will make the closing argu-
ment in the case. Speculations as
to the probable verdict of the jury
are numerous, but of course the re-
suit can not be foreshadowed with any de-
gree of accuracy. The friends of the pris-
oner expect a verdict OF acquittal Many
look for a verdict of murder in the first de-
gree, while those who prophecy & hung
jury are numerous. During the argument
yesterday and last night Hamilton occupied
seat not far from the jury, and most of
the time his four-ye2r-old daughter sat on
his lap. His wife has remained at his side
during the whole trial.

future prospects advised him to go to work
